Florida sheriff's deputy fired after being seen on camera allegedly face-slamming a teen

A deputy sheriff was fired after being seen on cell phone video allegedly slamming a teenage boy's face on the pavement.

"When my deputies do the right thing, I will always support them and have their back. But I will not stand idly by while anyone violates his or her sworn duty to protect," said Tony in a press release."Even a singular incident of excessive force by one of our deputies creates distrust between the community and our organization, and that is something I will not allow.

Afterwards, prosecutors claimed, the two officers filed false charges against the teen in order to cover up the attack. Deputy Christopher Krickovich appears in court during a status hearing at the Broward County Courthouse in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., July 29, 2019.
